Bungo Stray Dogs manga shocks everyone by killing 3 main characters
Bungo Stray Dogs Chapters 117 and 118 have collectively killed several main characters, leaving readers in shock.
One of the most underrated seinen manga out there,Bungo Stray Dogsis an exciting concoction of supernatural action and thrilling mind games. It’s also frequentlycriticized for not killing its charactersor bringing them back from the dead.
Despite the complaints, no one was prepared to see so many main characters die in the span of only two chapters. In Chapter 117, titled ‘Understood’, we see Bram finally perish, leaving behind Akutagawa to protect Aya.
But that’s not all. Towards the end of the chapter, Kunikida and Tanizaki face the mysterious Ame-no-Gozan as Atsushi rushes to stop them, but he’s too late. In a shocking scene, Kunikida is killed gruesomely as Atsushi saves Tanizaki in time.
However, the bad times are far from over. In Bungo Stray Dogs Chapter 118, titled ‘Mystifying Being’, Tanizaki tries to avenge Kunikida, only to die in front of Atsushi. But things start to look up – at least for some time – as Kenji and Suehiro arrive at the scene.
It doesn’t last long, though, as Kenji is sliced to death as Atsushi looks on in horror. In the span of two chapters, he’s lost three colleagues (whom he considers family) from the Armed Detective Agency. Needless to say, he’s in despair.
But it’s not just Atsushi who’s grieving the deaths of Kunikida, Tanizaki, and Kenji. Fans are equally shocked that theBungo Stray Dogs mangahas killed three main characters. As onewrote on X, “None of us know what’s happening but we do know we’re all sobbing.”
Bungo Stray Dogs Chapter 118 brings 2 major characters together for the first time

A fourthjoined, “Nooo, my child! Asagiri, why are you doing this to them? Just look at their little faces. I want to die – I still haven’t gotten over Kunikida, and now you’re killing off the sunshine of BSD.”
It looks like Bungo Stray Dogs has finally escaped its “no killing” allegations. Before the Armed Detective Agency members die in Chapters 117 and 118,Chapter 115 horrifyingly killed Teruko. Now fans are left to wonder which character will die next.
